International Journal of Public Law and Policy (IJPLAP), Vol. 9, No. 4, 2023

Abstract: The construction industry has been found the most dangerous on health and safety criteria, particularly in developing countries. In India, to achieve on-site health and safety, we have identified constitutional and legal provisions related to health and safety in construction. We have also identified some national autonomous bodies whose objectives are to achieve health and safety in the building. A detailed study found legal provisions like acts and rules for health and safety in the Indian construction sector at the central and state level. Still, improper enactment and lack of awareness make them inefficient. Efforts have been put through to find out the lacking and upgradation of the available legal provisions with the help of the present SWOT analysis.
